I am using a ThinkPad USB 3.0 Dock (0A33970 - US) with my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013). I have the latest DisplayLink drivers installed (5.2.1). Whenever I try to play a Movie or other content on my Mac, I get an HDCP error and any content plays audio, but a blank screen. I know my monitor is HDCP compliant, but I can't find any information about my Dock and HDCP.

Based on what DisplayLink states here --> https://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/830301-content-protected-video-does-not-play-on-mac-while this sounds like expected behavior.
